on potential early impact recruits....
Being an early contributor on the defensive line, especially in the SEC,
is difficult, but if anybody can do it, it's McKenzie. He is massive.
Simply put, the kid looks like a veteran SEC defensive lineman already.
He's also quick and powerful for someone his size. But McKenzie is not
just big and someone who takes up space. If he needs to use his speed to
beat a guard inside, he can do it. If he needs to bull rush through
someone, he can do it. The five-star didn't play one snap in his senior
season, so getting game ready at Tennessee will be important, but he's an excellent prospect who can do it all.
